I have a table that contains user options, so the table looks like  
id  
username  
option\_name  
option\_value

How do I create a single page that allows me to edit all the options?  
Would it be something like

\<% form\_for :options, :url =\> { :action =\> “update\_options” } do |  
form| %\>

 \<%= form.label :option\_name %\> \<%= form.text\_field :option\_value %\> \<% end %\> \<%= submit\_tag "save", :class =\> "save" %\>

If so, how do I send both the id and username?

Thanks,
